Plants make their food in their leaves. And need sun for this process, so smaller and fewer leaves means less sun for photosynthesis, and it also means less food to nourish the plant.

A chimpanzee has 48 chromosomes. When performing meiosis, one chromosome does not split properly in Anaphase II, causing one cel
Schach [20]

Answer:

The mutated cell will have 25 chromosomes.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a cell division process in sexual reproduction which involves two successive divisions of a cell having a diploid (2n) number of chromosomes into four daughter cells having a haploid (1n) number of chromosomes.

Meiosis consists of two successive nuclear divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II. Each division consists of these stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Anaphase consists of anaphase I and II. During anaphase II, the centromeres linking the two pairs of chromosomes which are called chromatids separate, and the sister chromatids move toward the opposite poles of the cell and are now called chromosomes.

Therefore in the chimpanzee having 48 chromosomes, after underoing meiosis, each daughter cell will have 24 chromosomes. If there is a case of non-separation of one chromosome, the cell will have 1n + 1 chromosomes i.e. 24 + 1 = 25 chromosomes.

Suppose that a late succession plant that is surrounded by early succession plants grows at a rate of 0.5 cm per day. If the ear
inessss [21]

Answer:

negative, inhibition

Explanation:

The experiment in the illustration shows that early succession plants have a <u>negative </u>effect on the late succession plants, and the observation is most consistent with the <u>inhibition</u> model of succession.

<em>That the late succession plant thrives better in the absence of the early succession plants means that the early succession plant has been impacting the growth of the late succession plant negatively. This is consistent with the inhibition model of succession.</em>

There are 3 different models of succession. These include;

  1. Facilitation model in which colonists modify the environment to favor the growth of later successional species.
  2. Tolerance model in which early colonists' modification of the environment has no positive or negative impact on the growth of later successional species.
  3. Inhibition model in which early colonists modify the environment to inhibit the growth of later successional species.

where would you find the precursor of a mitochondrial matrix protein in the following types of mitochondrial mutants: (a) a muta
Reil [10]

The precursor of a mitochondrial matrix protein is found in a mutation in the tom22 signal receptor.

Tom22 and Tom20 function as N-terminal matrix targeting sequences' outer mitochondrial membrane receptor proteins. The buildup of mitochondrial matrix-targeted proteins in the cytosol due to a malfunctioning Tom22 receptor protein may be followed by cytosolic turnover of these proteins.

The N-terminal sequence, which directs the protein to mitochondria and is proteolytically processed upon import3, is produced in approximately 70% of mitochondrial precursor proteins3. To get to the matrix, they must pass via the TIM23 and TOM complexes on the inner and outer membranes, respectively.
